I know nothing of boxing so I must ask, why cant they just fight the same night on the same card?

No worries breh, you'd fit in here perfectly. Observe below my post. See?

Anyway the all are headliners who can make more money fighting on different cards. Both are kinda must see fights that's bound to be entertaining.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
Shane Mosley is the only guy who ever got close to actually putting Mayweather down....and he couldnt complete the job either.


Shows what type of great chin Floyd has.

How does Shane not being able to finish Floyd after making Floyd look like Bambi on ice correlate with Floyds chin?.. if Floyd had some GOAT chin thin these punches wouldn have the affect that they have.. If Floyd had this great chin, you think he'd be Lance Armstronging around the ring forcing Maidana to use gloves with softer pillowy cushion? :stopitslime:

I am pretty sure Canelo only had a 3 fight deal with Showtime and the third fight is set for this November. He can fight wherever he wants to fight next year so network battles won't be a problem.
With the thaw between Oscar and Arum, Oscar working with HBO again to put on the Hopkins/Kovalev fight and both Canelo/Cotto being free agents as far as what networks they can fight on...it is almost a guarantee that Canelo/Cotto will be happening on HBO PPV next May.

If Floyd can't get a Manny fight for that weekend to make Canelo/Cotto move then I see Showtime moving Floyd's fight date to avoid having to share PPV revenues and face the possible embarressment of losing badly in PPV buys to the Canelo/Cotto card.
Yeah, you're right. I forgot about that. I even made a post about it a while back. :snoop::pachaha:
Word was that it is likely that Canelo's December fight could be on HBO and not Showtime at all...and that DLH really wants to make Canelo-Cotto and put in on HBO exclusively.
It is a fantastic matchup. We need these big matchups again, there has been some good fights, but nothing with hype getting the casuals really involved. This fight would have some excellent buzz.

Well if gets the date Floyd really has no choice but to fight Manny, as that is the only fight the would trump a Canelo vs Cotto card. They might as well mmake that the Co-Main and damnit we would have an amazing night of boxing.

We can only hope but I know Nelo is going to want to be the in the Main Event even tho Floyd beat him and Cotto :mjcry:

They can make more money separate. You don't have to know much, your will to learn is all thats needed. We all are still learning even though some of us act like we know it all.

Too much money involved breh.


You lower the total amount of PPV buys/gate revenue by placing the event all on 1 card.


If you hold them seperately, you get back double the revenue
Ahhhhh I see....yes thats simple business your right...

shyt I would just put one PPV up friday and one up saturday...and call it a day:yeshrug:

They really think they can run up against Floyd on that night. They are simply fukking the money up for themselves. It's a lose lose for both of them. Oscar is being b!tchmade.
